Hey guys,
 
Mom i love you but dont you think dad should be your valentine? ha ha just kidding but yes the gospel is good and it changes peoples lives ive seen so much happiness and joy come from living the gospel and see others live the gospel. So i have and infection on my chest and the doctor in the ward is putting me on a antibiotic for a few months so it goes away the mission is paying for my perscription. but yes i still live in the same place we have transfer calls next week but i hope i stay one more transfer! There are a few people who i still want to see get baptized before i go. Elder Gardner and i have 3 people on date for next month and they are really solid! Elder Gardner is a good guy and we have fun! 
 
 Pray for hali, Amanda, Patrick, and Jarded. They are all really close to getting baptized and we could use the extra prayer. Fasting works the other day we were having a hard time putting hali on date but after our fast. Some of the other Elders and Sisters at church had a feeling that march 10th was right for her, So we asked her and now she has committed to being baptized on that date! im so happy for her! she is truly amazing :)
 
I love you,
 
Love, Elder Hulet

Hey Hulet Family,
 
Hows it going everyone? Has the snow melted yet? I cant believe how much snow your getting, i would love to shred all that snow! ha ha but yeah my week has been really good earlier in the week we went on exchange with the zone leaders. It was a good experience but the zone leaders apt. sucks and especially their mattresses. My apt is one of the newer missionary apts so everything is really nice. On sunday the 17 we got to baptize lester and on sunday confirm him a member of the church! :) it was a really cool experience seeing him before and after his baptism! Night and Day. It was pretty cool having my first baptism i was pretty nervous but everything turned out great! He showed up 10 minutes late to his own baptism so that was really stressful! Yesterday i recieved my valentines day package, mom and becky and whoever else helped to organize it THANK YOU :) I really appreciated hearing from everyone, such a good boost! OH and will you guys forward this letter to grandma and grandpa hulet? wow i cant belive sarah howard is going on a mish, thats totally unexpected but tell her thanks for the letter and that ill write her back. By the way lester was a complete miracle, his whole life hes been hard because of the decisions he made early on. He used to be in a gang, he started smoking when he was 6 years old and his back has gone out on him at the age of 34. But he has such a good outlook on life and what the gospel has done for him. His conviction of the savior is so strong, after he was baptized he just sat in the font and said he was buzzing from the holy ghost. ha ha he realates the holy ghost with drugs when he feels it. But its so good to see how happy he is and how his life is changing! :) Sorry my letters havent been that great i just am really busy so when i get a chance to relax i dont really like typing letters, but i promise to do better from now on. And mom ill upload some pictures today.
 
Mom: Hey mom how is the weight loss going are you having fun working out and stuff? Are you still working at the red hanger? Mom thank you so much for the valentines package it was so nice! My companion elder gardiner is a really good guy we get along really well and were having alot of success in the area. Well i love you mom bye
 
Dad: Hey dad hows it going? Does ashlee like her new room? i think she can just keep the room and ill try to move out asap once i get home. But i miss you dad i hope we can get tickets to some jazz and utes games when i get home i want to do more things together with you and jake.
 
Jake: Jake whats up my man? I feel like its been forever since ive heard from you and the letter from the valentines package was awesome man. dude i joke with other missionaries about you coming to this mission and me training you. dude that would be so cool if you came here! but i bet youll go to england or something like that i bet youll go far away. so whats the word any cool new video games coming out lately? as a missionary your pretty sheltered from media if your obedient. But dude before you know it youll be out here and man is it fun everyone has fun out here if you let it! I seriously thought it was going to be miserable but no its really fun and the people you meet change your life and you change theirs. Dude jake i miss you duuude. when we are both back were going on a vacation to the beach in cali. Love you man write me back!
 
Ashlee: Hey ashlee whats new? Are you loving school or maybe not so much? oh well school is meant to be boring just remember to keep getting good grades because you are one smart girl! its funny theres a bus down the road that has the s and the h missing so it says cool bus ha ha i think its pretty funny. So is there anything you are curios about being a missionary? wow you will get to go when your 19 it seems like all the girls are going now, dont get left out :) Ashlee i miss you and love you.
 
Guys i love you so much. remember to always love eachother because we are family.I know that this gospel changes people because the savior changed people. Without works our faith is dead it means nothing if we dont do something about it. The prophet joseph smith new this. His life was devoted to acting on the knowlege he had been given in building the church of jesus christ again on the earth. You cant just expect the lord to do everything, he created you to do great things and expects you to do them so have the courage to be heard. No task is too big to accomplish! I love the savior he knows me and is here watching over me. In the name of jesus christ amen
 
Love, Elder Hulet

Hey whats up guys,
 
Things here in firgrove are really good elder gardner and i are having alot of sucess because of the lord. We are being obedient and we are recieving miracles in return. Last week at church we were short on our goal of new investigators and on sunday we were worried we wouldnt meet our goal. But that day at church we met a non member named amanda. Amanda has had a hard life she got involved in some really bad things when she was in her early teen years. Kevin her boyfriend is a member coming back to the church, so weve been teaching her over the last two weeks and shes getting baptized on the 2nd of march! Its so good to see the gospel changing their lives and their happiness. Also lester one of my favorite investigators is getting baptized on sunday! He is such a good guy, He too has had a very hard life. But to see him at church on sunday is the coolest thing he is really growing closer to his savior jesus christ. Hel loves the Gospel! Its cool to see all of his tatoos he"ll have the most in the ward ha ha but yeah i love this work! Life in washington is way nice people are really friendly for the most part, the area im in is kind of like our neighbor hood back home so its kinda weird ha ha. I know this church is true that jesus lives that joseph smith is a prophet and that the atonement is real! Accept the atonement, because your not perfect and never will be on this earth! So be patient with yourself and if your having struggles remember that its for your own good. If you never give up on the savior he will never give up on you. So put your faith in him do your best to keep your head up. Remember to be happy and have fun in your life. If your not having fun your not living right!
Okay so mom can you get me my friends email addresses?
So since im in a pretty nice area i havent had any bad meals because all the members have money and they feed us well.

Hey mom, and family,

Hey so yeah thats cool i that the ravens won i wish the broncos could have won but o well. Hey so im going to update more photos. Yeah the transfer was great i love my new comp he is way cool and we are getting close to getting some people baptized by the priesthood authority! Yeah i love it out here its rains as usual but thats okay because i cant really do anything other than work! ha ha but i want you to know that i love you guys and i want you all to email me! Jake and Ashlee are slackers and i need to hear from them. sorry last week wasnt my greatest week of writing i was just a little busy.
But i love you guys and want you to know that the church is true. Out here the church is way strong and everyone helps everyone. Gardner and I are facing more opposition this week, than ive faced all my mission i think alot of good things are going to happen soon and they will happen because this is the lords work and i take pride in that quite frankly. And im not boasting of my own strength but i do boast in the strength of the lord. I love it out here.
Write me back! I love you guys.


Hey dad i love you and im really happy to hear about your friend. Being out here is so much fun i just recently got a new companion and he is a really good guy his name is elder gardner and we just click. My last companion was kind of hard to be with ha ha all of his comps before him had a hard time too. Im trying to be the best companion for all of my comps so they can have fun and we can work hard. I love being out here and i miss you guys but the work is keeping me busy. So lester is one of our investigators who were trying to get baptized. He has already committed himself to be baptized but because of his back hes having a hard time getting there. Hes given up smoking and drugs so he can do this. Dad im grateful for helping me grow into the young man that i am, I really look up to you and love you.

Tell jake and ashlee i love them.
And give mom a big hug for me.
Love, Elder Hulet
I know that this church is the only true church in the world, and that the gospel of jesus christ is for everyone. I know that he lives and that joseph smith was and is a true prophet of god and that the restoration did happen.
I want you guys to know that. Love you bye.
